This study conducted at Ovidius University of Constanta, Romania, examines the integration of practical experiences into urban planning and construction curricula, involving 318 students from Construction, Law, and Administrative Sciences faculties. The study stresses the significance of these experiences in preparing students for the workforce, while assessing their perspectives on the relevance of their courses to future careers, with a particular emphasis on the influence of internships and real project involvement. The findings suggest that students who engage in practical activities view their courses as more relevant to their career advancement. This pattern is consistent across an array of courses, with various statistical analyses revealing degrees of significance. The study underscores the need of aligning educational programmes with labour market standards and professional requirements, particularly within fields that emphasise practical competencies. It also highlights the essential roles of construction engineers and public administration professionals, emphasizing the importance of understanding practical and legal aspects in their education.
这项在罗马尼亚康斯坦察奥维迪乌斯大学进行的研究探讨了将实践经验纳入城市规划和建筑课程的问题,共有来自建筑系、法律系和行政管理系的 318 名学生参与。研究强调了这些经验在帮助学生为就业做好准备方面的重要意义,同时评估了他们对所学课程与未来职业相关性的看法,特别强调了实习和实际项目参与的影响。研究结果表明,参与实践活动的学生认为他们的课程与他们的职业发展更相关。这种模式在一系列课程中都是一致的,各种统计分析都显示了其重要程度。这项研究强调,教育课程必须与劳动力市场标准和专业要求保持一致,尤其是在强调实践能力的领域。研究还突出了建筑工程师和公共管理专业人员的重要作用,强调了在他们的教育中了解实践和法律方面的重要性。

Influence of Online Forums on Customers’ Buying Decisions: A Machine Learning Approach 在线论坛对客户购买决策的影响:机器学习方法
IF 0.6 Q3 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2024-01-11 DOI: 10.2478/sbe-2023-0042

Online forums are becoming increasingly important in influencing customers’ buying decision process, hence understanding customers’ likelihood to rely on online forums while making buying decisions is of major concern for marketers. The companies should also be aware of how reliance-likelihood differs with the introversion/extraversion nature of customers. Using factor analysis as data reduction technique and classification and regression tree as machine learning technique, the current study categorizes customers and builds decision rules based on their self-perception related to their inter-intra communication comfort level (introversion/extraversion level). Based on customers’ self-perception of their inter-intra communication comfort level, four groups were identified as: Extroverts, Introverts, Socially Active and Vacillators. Analysis of the data collected from 209 respondents revealed that being socially active is a common trait for both introverts and extroverts in being influenced by online forums while making buying decisions. The current study will be useful for companies in understanding the effect of the level of introversion-extraversion in making customers more likely to be influenced by online forums for making buying decisions and hence will help firms in formulating more effective strategies and better predictive models related to online forums.
在线论坛在影响客户购买决策过程中的作用日益重要,因此,了解客户在做出购买决策时依赖在线论坛的可能性是营销人员关注的重点。企业还应该了解客户的内向/外向性格对依赖可能性的不同影响。本研究使用因子分析作为数据还原技术,并使用分类和回归树作为机器学习技术,根据客户对内部交流舒适度(内向/外向程度)的自我认知,对客户进行分类并建立决策规则。根据客户对其人际沟通舒适度的自我感知,确定了四个群体:外向型、内向型、内向型和外向型:外向型、内向型、社交活跃型和摇摆型。对从 209 名受访者那里收集到的数据进行分析后发现,社交活跃是内向者和外向者在做出购买决策时受网络论坛影响的共同特征。本研究将有助于企业了解内向-外向程度对客户在做出购买决策时更容易受网络论坛影响的影响,从而帮助企业制定更有效的战略和更好的网络论坛相关预测模型。

Relationship marketing is the process of establishing, maintaining, and improving solid relationships with a company’s customers and other stakeholders. Relationship marketing can significantly impact customer satisfaction, trust, commitment, and communication, which are critical in customer retention and increasing the probability of using a company’s products or services in the future. With globalization and technological advancements, competition and consumer demands have become more complicated, prompting firms to employ strategies that strengthen customer loyalty and trust for long-term relationships. This paper aims to identify research trends in the field through a systematic bibliometric literature review of research on relationship marketing and customer retention. The review includes 61 articles published in the Scopus® database, presenting up-to-date knowledge on the topic. The bibliographic search included peer-reviewed articles published up to 2022. The findings indicate that relationship marketing provides a win-win solution: customers benefit from special and unique treatment under relationship marketing, and companies benefit from stronger customer relationships that eventually translate to higher profitability and performance in target markets’ marketing initiatives. Relationship marketing produces multiple opportunities and benefits that facilitate the creation, maintenance, and improvement of customer retention programs.
关系营销是与公司客户和其他利益相关者建立、维护和改善稳固关系的过程。关系营销能极大地影响客户满意度、信任度、承诺度和沟通度,而这些对于留住客户和提高未来使用公司产品或服务的概率至关重要。随着全球化和技术进步,竞争和消费者需求变得更加复杂,这促使企业采取各种战略,加强客户忠诚度和信任度,以建立长期关系。本文旨在通过对关系营销和客户维系研究进行系统的文献计量学综述,确定该领域的研究趋势。该综述包括 Scopus® 数据库中发表的 61 篇文章,介绍了有关该主题的最新知识。书目检索包括截至 2022 年发表的经同行评审的文章。研究结果表明,关系营销提供了一种双赢的解决方案:客户受益于关系营销中的特殊和独特待遇,而公司则受益于更牢固的客户关系,这种关系最终会转化为更高的盈利能力和目标市场营销活动的业绩。关系营销带来了多种机会和益处,有助于创建、维护和改进客户维系计划。

The promotion of entrepreneurship is a priority objective for the European Union. Each country develops the most appropriate instruments for its economic structure; however, its effects are different depending on the conditions of its environment. The objective of this work is to study whether there are significant differences among European countries depending on whether or not they belong to the Eurozone. A panel data regression model is used to assess the contribution of the different policies to the rate of entrepreneurial activity. The results show that the experts’ evaluations of the implemented policies are higher in the member states of the monetary union. Policies with a negative impact are recurring demands from employers (bureaucracy, tax barriers, improve physical infrastructure).
促进创业是欧洲联盟的优先目标。每个国家都会根据本国的经济结构制定最合适的工具,但其效果却因环境条件而异。这项工作的目的是研究欧洲国家之间是否存在显著差异,这取决于它们是否属于欧元区。研究采用面板数据回归模型来评估不同政策对创业活动率的贡献。结果显示,货币联盟成员国的专家对已实施政策的评价较高。具有负面影响的政策是雇主经常提出的要求(官僚主义、税收障碍、改善物质基础设施)。

A problem of skill mismatch has long been a global issue. The same is true for an emerging market like Cambodia where a large number of youths enter the job market every year. This study aims to investigate the most important employability skills in post pandemic viewed by students, employees and employers. The study also explores the needed skills at private, public and non-profit sectors, and the preparation of students on those competencies for making a comparison and synthesis. To fulfil the earlier objectives, the study applies survey questionnaires and in-depth interviews with 109 participants and 6 interviewees respectively. The findings demonstrate that Being professionally ethical, Being committed to work, and Technology Use are the three main employability skills demanded in the market. However, specific institutions may prefer other skills according to the nature of their work. The study also demonstrates that students possess a few limitations, namely Adaptability to change, Communication, Commitment to work and Advanced digital skills. These weaknesses would be a key message to students and other stakeholders to reconceptualize their current practice to fulfil the gaps.
长期以来,技能不匹配一直是一个全球性问题。对于柬埔寨这样一个每年都有大量年轻人进入就业市场的新兴市场来说,情况也是如此。本研究旨在调查学生、雇员和雇主对大流行病后最重要的就业技能的看法。本研究还探讨了私营、公共和非营利部门所需的技能,以及学生在这些能力方面的准备情况,以便进行比较和综合。为实现上述目标,本研究采用了调查问卷和深入访谈的方法,分别对 109 名参与者和 6 名受访者进行了访谈。研究结果表明,职业道德、全心投入工作和技术应用是市场要求的三种主要就业能力。不过,特定院校可能会根据其工作性质偏好其他技能。研究还表明,学生存在一些局限性,即对变化的适应能力、沟通能力、对工作的承诺和高级数字技能。这些弱点将向学生和其他利益相关者发出一个关键信息,即重新构思他们当前的做法,以弥补差距。

Analysis of the Links Between ESG Performance and Liquidity Rates for the Companies Listed on the Emerging Markets in the European Union 欧盟新兴市场上市公司的环境、社会和公司治理绩效与流动率之间的联系分析
IF 0.6 Q3 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2024-01-11 DOI: 10.2478/sbe-2023-0061

Nowdays investors and other stakeholders increasingly consider ESG factors when making investment decisions. They were supported by numerous rating agencies that developed a large number of indices and reporting standards to facilitate the choice of the most sustainable companies from an ESG perspective. When the relationship between financial performance and sustainability was analyzed, the researchers did not reach an unanimously accepted conclusion: many studies show a positive relationship, while others show a negative one. In many studies, the relationship between ESG performance and financial performance, assessed through profitability rates was privileged. The aim of this study is to investigate if there is a relationship between ESG performance and the liquidity rates of the listed companies from emerging financial markets in European Union. The emerging markets in European Union were selected due to their attractiveness, as they offer high earning possibilities to investors. At the same time, aspects regarding the mandatory of non-financial sustainability reporting, starting from 2023, were taken into account. This will increase the comparability and homogeneity of ESG scores, but will also generate additional reporting costs, putting suplimentary pressure on companies.
如今,投资者和其他利益相关者在做出投资决定时越来越多地考虑环境、社会和公司治理因素。许多评级机构为他们提供支持,制定了大量指数和报告标准,以便从环境、社会和公司治理角度选择最具可持续性的公司。在分析财务业绩与可持续发展之间的关系时,研究人员并没有得出一致认可的结论:许多研究显示两者之间存在正相关关系,而另一些研究则显示两者之间存在负相关关系。在许多研究中,环境、社会和公司治理绩效与财务绩效(通过利润率评估)之间的关系是优先考虑的因素。本研究旨在调查欧盟新兴金融市场上市公司的环境、社会和公司治理绩效与流动性之间是否存在关系。之所以选择欧盟新兴市场,是因为这些市场具有吸引力,能为投资者提供高收益的可能性。同时,还考虑到了从 2023 年开始强制执行非财务可持续发展报告的问题。这将提高环境、社会和公司治理评分的可比性和同质性,但也会产生额外的报告成本,给公司带来额外压力。

This will increase the comparability and homogeneity of ESG scores, but will also generate additional reporting costs, putting suplimentary pressure on companies.","PeriodicalId":43310,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Business and Economics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139462765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study of financial literacy and sustainability has attracted much interest recently and is expanding quickly. This paper offers a trustworthly, consistent, and current financial literacy and sustainability analysis following bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review. Concerning 127 documents published between 2008 and October 2022, we specifically examined the co-occurrence of author keywords, co-citation analysis of cited references, and subsequent in-depth analysis. Results show that the following topics have received the most attention in analyzing financial literacy and sustainability research: (1) financial inclusion; (2) financial behaviour; (3) financial systems; and (4) decision-making. The trick-down growth and development theory, the consumption function theory, the resource-based view theory, and the theory of entrepreneurship are the theoretical pillars supporting this study’s structure. Next, we create an integrative framework as the foundation for additional research. As a result, this review provides a thorough overview of financial literacy and sustainability research.
金融素养与可持续发展的研究近来备受关注,并在迅速扩展。本文通过文献计量学分析和系统性文献综述,对金融素养与可持续发展进行了可信、一致和最新的分析。针对 2008 年至 2022 年 10 月间发表的 127 篇文献,我们特别考察了作者关键词的共现、被引文献的共引分析以及后续的深入分析。结果显示,在分析金融素养与可持续性研究时,以下主题最受关注:(1)金融包容性;(2)金融行为;(3)金融体系;(4)决策。涓滴增长与发展理论、消费功能理论、资源观理论和创业理论是支撑本研究结构的理论支柱。接下来,我们创建了一个整合框架,作为进一步研究的基础。因此,本综述对金融扫盲与可持续发展研究进行了全面概述。

The preservation and promotion of cultural heritage has been a major focus of European and international policy makers and researchers. Access to it is transformational (europeana.eu), which is why new technologies seem to be a good opportunity in doing so, especially in education. The young generation (Gen Z) is one of digital natives, as a result of their early exposure to the Internet and electronic gadgets. Thus, they usually expect more engaging experiences. At the same time, games have a powerful role in improving key skills and competencies required for success in education and professional life (Pellegrino, Hilton, 2012). Thus, this paper reviews available literature, exploring opportunities for cultural heritage sites through digital storytelling and gamification. A detailed bibliometric analysis provides insights about the progression of scientific papers related to cultural heritage and new technologies. Data was extracted from Scopus and mapped with VOSviewer visualization tool. Literature on Generation Z perception on cultural heritage is scarce. Even research on perception on cultural heritage of different generations is limited, with papers published in the last 2-3 years.
保护和弘扬文化遗产一直是欧洲和国际决策者及研究人员关注的重点。获取文化遗产具有变革性(europeana.eu),因此新技术似乎是这样做的良机,尤其是在教育领域。年轻一代(Z 世代)是数字原住民,因为他们很早就接触到互联网和电子产品。因此,他们通常期待更多的参与体验。同时,游戏在提高教育和职业生活成功所需的关键技能和能力方面具有强大的作用(Pellegrino, Hilton, 2012)。因此,本文回顾了现有文献,探讨了通过数字故事和游戏化为文化遗产地带来的机遇。通过详细的文献计量分析,我们可以深入了解与文化遗产和新技术相关的科学论文的进展情况。数据从 Scopus 中提取,并通过 VOSviewer 可视化工具进行映射。有关 Z 世代对文化遗产认知的文献很少。即使是关于不同世代对文化遗产认知的研究也很有限,仅有最近两三年发表的论文。
